What we fit in Lincoln

Wicket doors. Pass doors built into a leaf so staff need not open the whole door.
Robust build. Steel frames carry cladding to suit the building, from profiled steel to timber boarding.
Top-hung or bottom-rolling. Weight carried overhead or on a floor rail, chosen to suit the structure.
No headroom needed. With side-opening leaves, cranes, lights and services overhead stay clear.
Folding leaves. Where there is little wall either side, folding leaves concertina into a compact stack.

Typical scopes of work

Replacing a damaged floor rail and guide wheels on a bottom-rolling door struck by a vehicle.
Replacing worn timber sliding doors on a storage building with steel-framed bottom-rolling doors and a wicket door.
Installing telescopic sliding doors where the wall space to one side is limited by an adjoining structure.

Powered door rules that apply in Lincoln

Lincoln is in England, where powered industrial doors fall under Great Britain's health and safety law. Whoever makes a door powered — including converting a manual door — usually takes on the manufacturer's duties under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008: risk assessment, technical file, conformity marking and a Declaration of Conformity. Once it is in use, the employer or occupier must keep it safe under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998.

Access, phasing and timing

Most installations in Lincoln can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.

Questions from businesses in Lincoln

Will a sliding door fit our building in Lincoln?

It needs wall space to the side for the leaves to slide past, or room for folded leaves to stack. We measure this on survey and choose between sliding, telescopic and folding layouts to suit what is there.

Which is better for our Lincoln site, top-hung or bottom-rolling?

Top-hung keeps the floor flush but needs a strong structure overhead. Bottom-rolling suits lighter buildings but needs a clean, protected floor rail. We recommend one after checking both on survey.

Do you fit sliding doors on farm buildings around Lincolnshire?

Yes. We supply and fit steel sliding doors on agricultural buildings across Lincolnshire, including timber-clad leaves, bottom-rolling gear for lightweight portal frames and wicket doors so staff and livestock handlers can get in without opening the main leaves.
